12 ounce can - $2.49 at Total Wine & More in Kennesaw, Georgia.

Appearance: Pours nearly clear with an orange-golden body. Half-inch high layer of near white foam.

Smell: Tart, lightly nostril-stinging aroma with some lighter, hop-derived citrusy, tropical tones for an altogether tangy nose.

Taste: Minimally malty, with just some scant background breadiness, grain. Immediately, there's a broadening acidity, seemingly citrusy and a bit lactic. Subtler floral, tropical, citrus fruit accents. Modestly bitter. Hop qualities soon roll back, leaving just a standard sour base beer leading to the finish.

Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.

Overall: So-so. I feel some of these hybrid styles are rather tricky to pull off well. Kettle sours are quick and easy, dumping hops into a fermenter is a no-brainer. However, you've got to nail an excellent sour, add appealing hop characters, though eschewing overwhelming bitterness while managing to harmonize the flavors.
